  • Suspicious occurrence in Crescent Park

On Wednesday afternoon close to 1:30pm Surrey RCMP received the report of a suspicious occurrence in Crescent Park. 

The complainant saw a man running in her direction carrying a rope, was startled, ran away and contacted police. 

Police attended the park, spoke with the complainant and conducted patrols through the park.  

Police are aware of social media posts circulating that describe the incident as an “attack” and/ or “attempted abduction”. 

The posts were not made by the individual directly involved, and that there was no physical or verbal interaction between parties. 

“The man is described as Caucasian, tall with a slim build, wearing a white/ light colored shirt with darker sleeves, camo shorts, and brown ankle boots, carrying a rope,” says Surrey RCMP Media Relations Officer, Corporal Vanessa Munn.  “Investigators are working to identify the man involved in order to determine the complete circumstances, and asking the man to contact police so we can speak with him.”

The investigation remains ongoing.

We encourage anyone who encounters something suspicious or feels unsafe to do what this complainant did, follow their instincts and call police.  Anyone who was in Crescent Park on Wednesday May 31, between 12:00 p.m. and 1:30 p.m. and noticed anything suspicious is asked to contact Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502.
